Same, i also think they should add the CTAS Warrior which is a normal warrior but with a 40mm ( which is the same as the AJAX gun ). I think this should probably be a event vehicle tho

One thing that doesn't really get mentioned a lot about the bradley that is really nice about it is the raised missile rack and commander sight allows you to very easily go fully hull down and still shoot off missiles reliably. The DW doesn't really get that which is kinda not great

the flip side is no deploy time making it better to use aggressively.

[@user-mc9cv9zw3x]

Now that they added this expect the LAV-25 tow to be added

[@kaiotie1]

the thing that really lets this down is the low commander sight, and next to no depression on the commander sight/missile tubes. at least the bradley has a high commander sight, and the missile tubes can aim quite low, but doing that with this will result in you revealing too much of your turret. a lot of times I've been on a hill and have to basically push over it completely, to be able to get a good line of sight for my missiles to work where they bradley could just stay behind the hill and launch it, you simply cant aim low enough for it to be useful on anything but flat ground.

[@woshijunfa]

I really don't like the change to tow missiles :( The bradley was one of my favourite vehicles to play because of the 2B and now they seem to do a third of the damage they used to and they fly into the dirt so much more

[@Sturmgechu]

i love the old warrior. its one of those tanks that takes skill to use efficently. did you know you could switich to the missile pods sight (looking down the launcher tube) and fire accurately behind cover? its crazy how much damage a milan 2 missile does.

[@restreppthroat3324]

I grinded the 2 German RakJPz 2's recently, and had that same effect with the ATGMs semi-frequently going through objects. Through "thin" objects like small bushes or flimsy wooden fences, or if it barely touches the ground at a very shallow angle, it would give the explosion effect as if it detonated, but then continue invisibly and hit the enemy tank. Happened often enough I would sometimes use it intentionally.

[@ADI-cr4gf]

thanks for the cover man, it really helped me do the choice if i shall grind for it, appreciate it

[@liladoodle]

One Brazilian vehicle (Maybe in the US tree) I'd love to see is the EE-9 Cascavel. Basically if the ERC-90 was made Brazil but was armed with the 90mm Cockerill Mk. 3 cannon from the AML-90.

[@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933]

If the US does ever get a Central & South America sub tree, that would be good around 8.7 or 9.0 at the least.

[@jp18449]

There's a suggestion for a LATAM ground and air tree on the forum, a MUCH better idea than murica getting a subtree.

[@MaTo-ri2nm]

Just wanted to share something i found while playing the Wiesel 1a2 with the TOW-2Bs: If you aim more in the hull area of a tank, the missile will adjust its flightpath in a way that it hits with more effect. This seems to be because the TOW-2B flys above the crosshair to hit top down. I hope this makes as much sense as it made in my head.

[@harryshuman9637]

@17:00 Video evidence of a TOW-2A missile performing a hyperspace jump straight into Moderna's roof

[@petrkdn8224]

It's literally just a desync thing. His game client thought he hit the tree, so it removed the missile and made the tree fall and an explosion effect. While in fact on server it didn't hit the tree and continued flying where he was pointing. And he killed the Moderna. What's so hard to understand?

[@USSWisconsin]

Hell yeah, been waiting for a video from someone on this

[@albedo826]

As someone who takes the Warrior to 12.0 games frequently... ...I hate the Desert Warrior. This is no comparison to the standard Warrior. Idc about the TOW missiles it's the gun -- if it had IR/TV tracker to shoot at low flying aircraft I could accept it as a universal machine but the gun does not do a sufficient amount of damage at all, the targeting speed is worse than the standard, the penetration is worse, the post pen is worse, less gun depression to make ATGM shots over crests, etc, etc, the list goes on. The stabilizer is a bit of a gimmick when the standard RADEN is decently stable already, and when 1 shot firing at 0.8 a second can take out a Leo 2 PSO engine, transmission, and radiator in one fail swoop while on the move, I can never accept the weaker gun.

[@stormraptor1216]

Funny how gaijin decides to give it the itialian 25mm round for the american bushmaster cannon

[@insurgentkilla]

[@dante_rib]

[@b.c.2281]

This POS made me appreciate the OG Warrior even more than I already did. The stabilizer is nice to have but the gun is absolute ass compared to the Rarden's damage and pen. The stab and TOWs are the only things better than the FV510 and in most ways it's actually worse.

Have the atgm’s been changed again because I’ve noticed as well that they dip into the ground a lot more than they used to when they made them a bit more realistic?

[@THERUBBISHPCKID]

its sluggish because of gaijins awful attempt at modelling british gearing and this is evident on the normal warrior as well as their inability to properly model torque. I saw Megatron and the up to date Warrior at tankfest last weekend and whilst it is admittedly a small arena which hasn't got a lot of room for them to properly get going they certainly are a lot faster of the mark irl than in game. The warrior was blisteringly fast and nearly able to keep up with the new AJAX and ARES

[@anti_shirk2592]

Im just happy there is a kuwaiti tank ingame

[@jp18449]

Personally, I don't see the point in playing this vehicle, especially at 10.0. It only has 2 advantages over the standard warrior (Which is WAAAAY down in BR, at 8.3!), a faster fire rate, and 1 mor ATGM firing before reload. Other than that, its got less penetration and a power/weight ratio which completely removes the warrior's well known mobility. Will I bring it into my 10.0/10.3 lineup? Maybe, but it does nothing that vehicles already in the UK tree can't do. Ajax would've been a much better addition I think... EDIT: They fixed the steering on all the ratels in the update, mayhaps we see some ZT3 action Justin? I've been playing it a LOT, and its absolutely amazing now that you can drive in a straight line.

It should go down to 9.7, there's no lineup there but the decreased spawn cost is necessary.
